As an example of the metallurgical and mechanical properties of recently manufactured heavy section components, the properties of a nozzle shell with an integrated flange for an EPR reactor (Fig. 2.3) are described. The material is RCC-M Sectionll Part 1-M2112, which is SA508 Grade 3 Class 1 type equivalent. The nozzle portion of the component is around 600mm thick, which is more than twice the thickness of conventional shells for a PWRPV.

Most engineering alloys contain multiple constituent elements to achieve the desired metallurgical and mechanical properties. Superalloys Rene N6 and CSMX-IOM are composed of as many as twelve or thirteen microalloying elements to enhance their properties at elevated temperatures (Durand-Charre, 1997). These alloying elements are added for specific purposes and...

The mechanical, metallurgical, and physical properties are the most relevant material properties to reverse engineer a mechanical part. The mechanical properties are associated with the elastic and plastic reactions that occur when force is applied. The primary mechanical properties include ultimate tensile strength, yield strength, ductility, fatigue endurance, creep resistance, and stress rupture strength. They usually reflect the relationship between stress and strain. Many mechanical properties are closely related to the metallurgical and physical properties. 

Physical properties usually refer to the inherent characteristics of a material. They are independent of the chemical, metallurgical, and mechanical processes, such as the density, melting temperature, heat transfer coefficient, specific heat, and electrical conductivity. These properties are usually... 

Thin-film XRD is important in many technological applications, because of its abilities to accurately determine strains and to uniquely identify the presence and composition of phases. In semiconduaor and optical materials applications, XRD is used to measure the strain state, orientation, and defects in epitaxial thin films, which affect the film s electronic and optical properties. For magnetic thin films, it is used to identify phases and to determine preferred orientations, since these can determine magnetic properties. In metallurgical applications, it is used to determine strains in surfiice layers and thin films, which influence their mechanical properties. For packaging materials, XRD can be used to investigate diffusion and phase formation at interfaces...
